The stress field controls patterns of crustal deformation, including which faults are likeliest to
cause earthquakes or transmit fluids. Since the 1950s, maps of maximum horizontal stress …

Earth's crust is continuously subjected to oscillatory stress perturbations due to the solid
Earth and ocean tides. The seismic response to such stress modulations carries information …

Knowledge of the state of stress in subducting slabs is essential for understanding their
mechanical behavior and the physical processes that generate earthquakes. Here, we …

Inversions of earthquake focal mechanisms are among the most accessible and reliable
methods for determining crustal stress. However, the use of this method varies widely, and …

The stress field controls patterns of crustal deformation, including which faults are likeliest to
cause earthquakes or transmit fluids. Since the 1950s, maps of maximum horizontal stress …

We test three different methods for selecting the fault plane from the two nodal planes in an
individual focal mechanism, which are implemented in a linear stress inversion technique, to …

A number of earthquakes in West Texas have been monitored with a relatively high-density
seismic monitoring network since 2018. The number of stations enables precise locations …

Recent work using stress inversions has emphasized the lack of stability of stress inversions
from earthquakes with fault planes of limited diversity. We explore this question using data …

ABSTRACT The Delaware Basin in West Texas has been experiencing induced seismicity,
primarily from wastewater injection, for the past number of years. Events recorded here have …
